Man, God, and the "gods"



I have posted the following comment to an American Thinker article on "Being Human and the Abuse of Science", which sets belief in God above science:

The problem is, all of our religions grew out of previous history, which personalized God, and thus put God in a too-small box of man's own making. The most obvious problem with this, of course, is the proliferation of man-made "Gods", which led to competing religions -- a division of mankind that has yet to be healed by new understanding, rather than kept alive by man-made, false dogmas masquerading as the truth, as "revealed" through various "prophets". Mohammed and Islam is an extreme example.

God, in purest truth, is overarching meaning; meaningfulness itself. Of course, to personalize that: God is the Designer of all that exists in the material world, the material universe.

But there is new, more immediate knowledge now. Not about the truth of God, but about the "gods" of ancient myth. Those who are blind to the underlying order and coherence in the physical world, and the indicated overarching meaning, are second or third rate thinkers, blind to the uncounted wonders (not mere scientific observance and dispassionate listing of the details) of the world and man.

Human religions, despite human learning throughout history and such fundamental advances as monotheism, have all been suborned from the beginning, by the once-sacred stories passed down about the "gods", now relegated to "myth", or primitive fantasy. But in fact -- as many have wondered but only I have uncovered and verified, scientifically, by my discovery of the "Great Design of the 'gods' " -- the "gods" did exist. For their "Great Design" IS great, encompassing the entire world, and unavoidably indicating that ALL was designed -- as we can note in even the smallest of things, all around us -- and appreciation of the design of all things is key to appreciation of the truth of an overarching meaning, and thus intelligence, known as God. They were the ones who taught Man to fear them and thus to "fear God", and the ones who divided Man into separate tribes, with false dogmas that still rule us in too many ways.

This is not wild, or merely hopeful, speculation. Through my discovery of the Great Design of the 'gods', it is now fact, constituting a new paradigm for both human science and religion. And the breakdown of order, and the rise of old, false dogmas, that we are seeing today is but an indication that this new knowledge is needed now.
